Landscape DESIGN, MA

Stunning landscapes begin with a well thought out and unique landscape design.

Our exclusive “Photo Image” or 3D landscape design begins with a “photo”. The area to be designed will be photographed and through specialty software, Kim manipulates the image to visually create your ultimate landscape design including plants, hardscapes, water feautures and whatever other elements that may be requested. Whether you are looking for a residential front yard landscape design, backyard landscape design, pool area landscaping, outdoor living space design or commercial property design our design services can show you the finished project before any groundbreaking begins.

It has been proven that a high quality landscape design can not only increase the beauty of your property but also the value. If the quality and design are good enough they can increase your property value by 15%. Dave Middleton, of Coldwell Banker Burnett, stated that “Average returns on investment can be upward of 100-200%-if you invest $10,000 in landscaping you can get double that back.”

With the above stated, you want to make sure that you are getting the best landscape design for your property to get the best return whether it be for your own personal use or for profit selling your real estate someday. So, what better way to assure you are getting the best design than to actually see the finished product before it is installed! That is what Decorative Landscapes Inc. and Exclusive Landcape Designer Kim Gravel will offer you.

Kim will design a landscape, whether it’s a backyard retreat or front yard curb appeal, to fit your desires and dreams while keeping within budget. Kim can achieve a look for you that will make your home unique and inviting to family, friends and neighbors while also being the envy of passers-bye.

Every design is its own original piece of art work. When Kim creates a design all key elements are taken into consideration. These elements include: architecture of the property, ultimate functionality of the area, lifestyles of the property owner, along with planting issues such as sight lines, scale, lighting conditions, color, texture and form. Also, hardscape, softscape and water features will be incorporated where appropriate. Hardscape being any type of stonework feature and softscape being plant life. Anyone can say just plant an Arborvitae or Rhody or buy the “plants on special” that day at the nursery. However, there is a lot more that goes into a quality innovative design that you will be able to appreciate all year long and for years to come. Kim’s philosophy on design is: “Why settle for the ordinary when you can have the EXTRAORDINARY!”

Can you visualize your landscape projectlike Kim’s clients can? If not give Kim a call or send her an email and she will be happy to visually design your next project. You will also notice that Kim’s designs are not your “Average Joe’s”. She prides herself on exciting innovative ideas that incorporate unique plants that will survive in our Northeast environment. Unless of course, you want the average design and that can be arranged as well.
